Dual-mode Imaging of Cutaneous Tissue Oxygenation and Vascular Function
Published on: December 8, 2010
Abstract:
Continuous transcutaneous oxygen monitoring has become standard practice in the management of infants who require supplemental oxygen. Previously described complications of tcPO2 monitoring consist of prolonged intense skin erythema or first degree burns. Two cases of premature infants who developed numerous, hyperpigmented skin craters following prolonged tcPO2 monitoring are reported. Although these lesions appear to be harmless, they have not resolved with time and long-term cosmetic implications are unknown.

Administering Oxygen by Mask
Administering oxygen by mask is a common nursing intervention that provides supplemental oxygen to patients with respiratory distress or chronic lung conditions. This procedure involves delivering oxygen at a specified rate through a face mask connected to an oxygen source.
Equipment

Tracheostomy Decannulation
Description of the Procedure
Decannulation refers to the permanent removal of the tracheostomy tube, signaling the resolution of the condition that initially necessitated the tracheostomy. The process requires a well-coordinated interplay between...
